Reinhart was nervous. It has been a while since he stepped inside the music room. The place has been abandoned since she was gone and he had never taken a step back inside anymore, until that afternoon.
Instead of heading to his usual training, he went there and found the old piano still placed inside the room, covered in black robe to protect the instrument from dust. Despite not being there for many years, everything was still the same just like how he remembered it.
He took a few steps in and was welcomed by the familiar shaved wood scent which was the signature of the room, it was due to the tree that grew right beside its window. Even though the window was closed, the scent seemed to sink into the room, giving it a subtle fragrant aroma.
I wonder how long has it been? He gently remo
"Carelessness is inexcusable and merits the inevitable sequence."-James Anthony Froude-***"What is it, Maxi?" Reinhart entered Maxi's office because the man had summoned him. Maxi was seated calmly in his chair and invited Reinhart to take a seat right across him. Once the younger brother was seated, Maxi did not waste any time and stated his order."You know the luna announcement ceremony would occur soon, right? During this time, there would be people who might try to hurt her or me, considering she is human, things can get really messy. So I would like you to keep a close eye on Sabrina and make sure that everything will be safe."Reinhart did not understand why he would appoint him to be the watcher, since he had other members he could assign instead."Why me?" He asked."Because you are the most sensitive among all of us, you'll probably sense danger better than the rest of us. Take Beatrix too, she m
"The only thing that can ruin a good day is people."-Ernest Hemingway-***In the past, the luna announcement ceremony l was supposed to be the best time of the year, second to the winter moon festival. In normal cases, After the luna was being introduced, the people would gather together and created some sort of a festival on their own.Each home would contribute a large meal of their specialty and carried it to a large table in the middle of the forest. Then everyone was free to take a portion of the meal they had interest in and everyone would share meals and ate in joy.Then there was supposed to be music and dancing as well. The musician within the clan would start an informal orchestra while the rest of the people danced in joy to welcome their new luna. They would also start singing prayer song for abundance and strength for both the royal clan members and the people.There were also supposed to be gift givi
"Poison is in everything and no thing is without a poison. The dosage makes it either a poison or a remedy."-Paracelsus-***“How is she?” Maxi stood beside the physician who was examining her to identify the poison inside of her body.Since he was getting impatient and could no longer wait outside, he had decided to barge in. Since it was the alpha, the physician allowed him in as long as he did not interfere with anything. Sabrina was still unconscious and she was sweating like crazy. Her face became pale as the color left her body and if it was not for her breathing and heartbeat, some might think she was dead. The physician was in dread. He fearfully explained everything he found out to the alpha, Reinhart and Beatrix who were in the same room as they were.“I am sorry, alpha. The luna has been poisoned with the Southern Black viper’s venom coated on the tip of the arrow. This poison is highly
"The greatest illusion in this world is the illusion of separation."-Ralph Smart-***After a long and rather difficult adventure, the alpha finally arrived at Linderstorm. All the hardship he went through before that was nothing compared to the mystical air which surrounded the field itself.As expected, the lush greenery scene made people wonder why the place was so feared when at the first glance it appeared like paradise. For Maxi who had been there before, he was fully aware of how deceiving the place could be.It was why he needed to have his guard up and never let his mind went blank, because the creatures who resided there would play with your mind if you fail to guard it.“Everyone, stay close to each other, make sure you never wonder to an area on your own, go in pair or three and keep your mind full of positive thoughts at all time.” He ordered and the guard did exactly as they were told.
"There are some things you can only learn in a storm."-Joel Osteen-***After resting for an entire day and a few hours driving in the car. The alpha and Sabrina returned back to the manor alongside Jayden and the other guards. Even after eating and resting, she still did not look that well compared to before.It was why she had to put on more makeup that day than she used to. Maxi did not like how she tried to hide her flaws from him. It was normal to look pale after being sick, but she wanted to look presentable."I can't let the other staff get worried. Looking like a healthy human being is the least I can do." She joked in attempt to brighten up the mood."I can't believe you are still joking at times like this. Sometimes I wonder if you're actually sane." He returned the joke as well and the two of them were laughing together. After a while, they eventually arrived."Come on, I'll help you out." He exit
"Whatever you can do, or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius, power and magic in it."-W.H Murray-***“Good morning, my love, how do you feel today?” He asked her as she walked into the dining room to have breakfast. The other family members were there as well, the only person beside Maxi who greeted her was Beatrix who was concerned for her well-being.“I have not seen you since you returned back here. I am glad you are okay now.” The young girl spoke politely. She smiled and greeted her back, as well as Reinhart and Cordelia. She had decided that after everything she had been through, it was not time to be scared of them anymore.She started to accept her position as luna and despite having plenty of things to learn, she was willing to improve. There was still time before they finalize their marriage, which was postponed several months due to the attack. That day would be the second time
"Real magic is not about gaining power over others, it's about gaining power over yourself."-Rosemary Ellen Guiley-***Alphonse was teaching her the basic of breathing techniques which would be used to cultivate her magical power. He told her that humans were naturally born without magic power unlike some other creatures who already had the ability embedded within themselves, however, even a normal person could develop them if they could just master the right techniques, especially their breathings. Since she was a beginner, he needed to start from the very basic.“You want to calm yourself down and practice controlling your breathing, then, you must find the power within yourself, I can teach you spells and other techniques later, but if you do not know how to control your own body in the process, magic can be self-damaging.” He explained.Of course, at first it was difficult for her to control her breathing
"The past is a stepping stone, not a millstone."-Robert Plant-***“Her royal majesty, Luna Esther has arrived!” One of the guard announced as the family had just finished their breakfast. Everyone was shocked by her unannounced arrival except for Maximillian who had been informed of this matter in advance.“Why did not she tell me she was coming?” Cordelia puffed since she could have prepared a proper welcoming for her. Esther entered the living room and was soon greeted by the rest of her family members.“My daughter, it has been some time.” Cordelia went to hug her daughter who hugged her back in return.“I know, mother. Sorry for my sudden visit, it’s just I have a few things I need to sort out here.” She smiled trying her best to cover the bitterness in her eyes. There was a reason why she had come there in the first place despite not being called or having

"A happy ending is always possible if you are willing to keep the story moving to get there."-Alan Cohen-***Usually when this happened, he would summon her either in the office or their bedroom. This time, it was different. He summoned her to the garden and she wondered why. Maxi was not someone who would come to the garden without purpose, simply because he was not a nature person. She did not think too much and followed until she saw him standing near a big tree in the end of the garden.“What is it, Maxi? Why have you called me at this hour?” She wondered. He smiled slyly as he grabbed her hand without saying anything. Then he suddenly transformed into a wolf and asked her to jump on top of him.Of course, Sabrina did not understand the reason why. She just did as he said and he mind linked her to hold on tightly. She grabbed a handful of his fur and Maxi started running. The sudden motion surprised her a
The surest way to be happy is to seek happiness for others. -Martin Luther King Jr.- *** “Luna, please drink this chicken broth soup. It had been brewed with several spices that would replenish your energy.” Judith handed over a bowl to her and she slowly drank it using spoon. She had gotten used to the taste of the soup since it has been delivered to her every single day for the past month. It was a traditional recipe for breastfeeding woman in the clan. Truthfully, she hated the taste since it was so bitter and balsamic, but each time she was done with the bowl, she always felt better than before so she kept on taking it so she could breastfeed her children well. “Judith, I want to see the twins.” She wiped her lips and gave the order. The maid nodded and walked out of the room. Sabrina swore she was starting to get really bored inside the manor. Since she has not fully recovered yet, Maxi has not allowed her to go
"We have a secret in our culture and it's not that birth is painful. It's that women are strong."-Laura Stavoe Harm-***The day of Sabrina’s labor has arrived. Since midnight, she had been sent to a guest room which had been re arranged for her delivery. The entire time, Maxi has been holding her hand for hours.She had been in so much pain and her scream could be heard from outside the room and the manor. The guards had been arranged to guard around the manor and ensure nobody from the outside could get inside except for the birth maids.An hour after the initial contraction, Dr Hay and two other birth maids helped her with the delivery process and they too had not rested for hours, taking turn in supporting her to ensure everything was fine.“You can do it my love, just push a bit further.” Maxi was a bit worried for her since she was going to deliver a hybrid baby. In the past, birth to Hybrid
"Being gifted needs courage."-Georg Brandes-***That morning after breakfast, Maxi accompanied Sabrina to the green house where Alphonse was. She brought a small pouch filled with a few stones Maxi gave her and she planned on giving it over to Alphonse.She opened the green house door and saw him sitting there while drinking tea like usual. He quickly noticed their arrival and invited him with a polite smile on. She walked in with Maxi and greeted him cheerfully.“Good morning, Alphonse. Sorry to disturb you this early without any notice, but I have come here to thank you for everything. I thought of giving you something as a token of my gratitude.” She pulled out the pouch from her pocket and handed it over to him.“What is this, luna?” The man opened up the pouch and was surprised by the crystal he saw. Alphonse recognized them right away and he nearly teared up because of it. He was not
"It is the most powerful creation to have life that is growing inside of you, there is no bigger gift."-Beyonce-***A few days has passed since the crazy incident and there has been some peace and calm in the Dravos manor. Even though her relationship with the other members of the family was still strained, Sabrina did not care and simply focused on herself and her pregnancy.A day after she returned from the kidnapping, she was worried for the fetus inside of her. Everything that happened might have caused some injury on the baby but she went and had her baby checked and the doctor said everything was fine.However, that morning she woke up and realized her bump was much bigger than before. When she went to bed, she was sure the bump was not that large and this scared her. She quickly woke Maxi up and her panicked face was all he needed to call the doctor again.Even though it was early in the morning, just an ho
"If you don't recount your family history, it will be lost. Honor your own stories and tell them too. The tales may not seem very important, but they are what binds families and make each of us who we are."-Madeleine L'Engle-***“What do you mean that she is my great grandmother?” She had known everyone from her father’s lineage and it was never mentioned that anyone was a high priestess of a sect that worshipped the moon goddess. If what the goddess was saying, it must mean that she was her great grandmother from her mother.“How is that even possible?” She wondered. Before she died, her mother had never told her anything about her grandmother or great-grandmother. She has never mentioned anything about their lineage so Sabrina had never heard of it before.“Yes, you are right, she is from your mother’s lineage. However, this scene right here is only the beginning. Let me show y
"Hell is empty and all the devils are here."-William Shakespeare-***Once everything was over, the room completely transformed itself. The two of them walked out from the room with Herod dragged around. They were in the place's living room and They wondered what they were supposed to do with him."Let me go, you filthy werewolves. I rather die than become your prisoner." Herod spat, angering Maxi and Alphonse."I think we should just get rid of him right away. His siblings are all dead. If he's left alive he might end up taking revenge on us again in the future and we cannot risk that." Maxi suggested with a cold, dangerous tone. This man dared to hurt his luna and mate. For an alpha, that was the biggest humiliation and threat he could receive in his entire life."I completely agree. Luna, if you allow me, I will erase this man's existence right here and now. This man is better off dead than alive." She was a bit
"The light shines in the darkness and the darkness has not overcome it."-John 1:5-***Sabrina stood in front of the witches completely unharmed with Alphonse standing beside her. Maxi stood up and took a deep breath to regain his strength. The blow did make an impact on him and his body still hurt but seeing Sabrina safe was all he needed.He walked toward his woman while dispelling each attack thrown his way and managed to reach his woman. He went to give her a huge hug and during this time, Josephine and Herod joined forces to attack them from a close distance but Alphonse quickly used his magic to break theirs.The power they had learnt from years of practice suddenly became nothing in front of Alphonse.“You! Just who are you!?” They wondered for they had never known or seen him before. They also did not know that the Azure Blood clan specifically had such strong wizard on their side. They knew the
